To properly spool fishing line on a reel, first select a high-quality Indian-made monofilament line such as those produced by local brands like Sufix or KastKing available in Indian markets. Begin by passing the line through the rod guides and then tie it securely to the reel spool using an arbor knot. Ensure the line is winding in the correct direction as indicated on your reel - most Indian-made reels have clear directional arrows. Maintain moderate tension on the line while spooling, either by having a friend hold the line spool or using a towel for friction. Fill the spool until it is approximately 1/8 inch from the rim, being careful not to overfill which is common mistake with beginner Indian anglers. For best results with Indian fishing conditions, consider using 8-12 lb test line for freshwater species commonly found in Indian waters like rohu, katla, or mahseer. |
